It is designed in a way to give you maximum exposure to the business environment around the world, while also incorporating appropriate theories and case studies. But doing MBA from a good place does make a difference and gives a definite edge over your competitors and peers.

Indian Institute of Foreign Trade (IIFT) is counted among India’s top business schools and is sought after by all those who want to pursue MBA.

The IIFT aims to develop a capable workforce for the country, people who are able to handle the ever changing international scenarios and contribute to the country and the world at large.
